reticulation by Tobias Mandel

reticulation is inspired by the homonymous surface-finishing technique for decorative metal objects. With heat being applied selectively, the alloy beneath the surface metal turns liquid and starts to deform the surface from within.

For me, this technique serves as a metaphor for shaping the material of my intervirtual sound activation—since so many things in life can only become visible, after profound change from within has happened.

As the sonic starting point, I enter the mode of activation from a generative field of perpetual fluctuation of abstract spatial motions. I seek to sculpt and expose these aural and spatial malleabilities, inviting the listener into their own moment of reticulation—where subtle energies allow the perception to be warped from within.

Folding Spaces

This performance uses the room as the main sound source, capturing and reprocessing it to create layers that fold and shift within the space itself. Percussion and additional processing further shape these sounds, resulting in an improvised, octophonics composition that blends contemplative and experimental soundscapes.
